Answer:

For this item, we let x and y be the number of bushels of apple that will be used to produce apple cider and apple juice, respectively. The situation above is best represented by the following equations,                                            x + y = 18                                           20x + 15y = 330The values of x and y from the equations above are 12 and 6, respectively. Therefore, 12 bushels will be used to make apple cider and 6 bushels will be used to make apple juice.

The local meteorologist is converting temperatures from Celsius to Fahrenheit. she knows that the formula for the conversion fro
andreev551 [17]
In this equation, we are solving for f. The first thing we have to do is get rid of the denominator, so we have to multiply both sides by 9, which leaves us with 9C=5*(f-32). Then we divide both sides by 5, which is 9/5C=f-32. The last thing we have to do is add 32 to both sides to isolate f, which gives us our final equation of (5/9)C+32=f.

Solve each equation y-6.72=253
diamong [38]
You just need to have the variable by itself, so move the -6.72 to the other side (that will make it +6.72)
So you should have this equation now: y = 253+6.72
Then just add them and you have this: y = 259.72
And that is your answer!
